This is where we answer a range of questions that have frequently been asked about our MB Building Kit System. Unfortunately, we are not able to publish all the specific customer queries here. We have tried to select the most representative ones in such a way that they cover a wide range typical fields.

Question:
What exactly are the Profiles made of and what is a wrought aluminium alloy?

Answer:
Please refer to page 50 of our current catalogue MB 6 where we provide many technical specifications. Further details are available from the PDF document we have compiled: The alloy used in our aluminium profiles

Question: 
Are all your products - especially aluminium profiles and panel elements - food safe? i.e. Can these components be used in food industry applications without any problem, even when warm or hot ingredients are used?

Answer:
Our wrought aluminium alloy (and thus all our aluminium profiles) are physiologically harmless according to the German Food Law (Lebensmittel- und Bedarfsgegenstände Gesetz).
We guarantee the same properties for numerous panel elements of our product range.
